Sally Bigham

Sally has won just about every event you can win, but there is still a big goal
to achieve—the rainbow jersey at the Marathon World Championship. This goal
sits at the top of her list every season. She is one of the toughest females in
the sport—someone who wins the Swiss Epic with a cracked femur, rightfully
owns the nickname, Iron Sally.

“I can’t imagine a life without a bike.“

When Sally came to the Topeak-Ergon Racing Team in 2009, she was considered the
most successful female mountain biker in the UK—she is now one of the best
female riders in the world. The Brit dominates her female marathon competition
and races from one victory to another, no matter if she rides with various
partners or as an individual.

Fun and love of the sport rank as the most important for her. “Success arrives
on its own with hard training and mental strength,” says the marathon specialist. This
is evident in her results. Even though Sally only came into the sport of
mountain biking in 2006, she achieved British Champion within two years and
continues to reach the top step of the podium.
